I think you should put out a summary of how many and what packages will
be changed in Ubuntu. After that we can agree or not with automatic filling
whislist bugs (containing the patches) against Debian packages.

Since Ubuntu Dapper is actually on freeze, what's your timeline to these
patches? Will you include this stuff just on Dapper+1, in the end of
the year?
